College leaders, you must put an end to Jew-hatred on campus

Universities must make it clear that if you harass students due to their Jewish or pro-Israel identity,  you will bear consequences.Op-ed.

Whenever anyone says "From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will Be Free," they are calling for the destruction of Israel. The river is the Jordan and the sea is the Mediterranean. So this isn't a call for a free "Palestinian" state, but for an Arab state that exists in the absence of Israel. It is pure antisemitism. Yet it is allowed to be used, and is legitimized, constantly on college campuses. There is no way that if students called for the destruction of any other nation (the one exception is America), this wouldn't be tolerated. But it's the Jews, and the people who allow and participate in this are racists, so it's not only allowed, but considered to be virtuous.

None of us even slightly surprising. We see repeatedly that anti-Zionism is identical to Antisemitism in its execution, strategy, and cause as pure Antisemitism. The claim that it’s about Jews and not Israel is only believable to the ignorant and antisemitic. It’s actually absolutely absurd. This incident is just the latest example. Jews need to wake up. Antisemitism never declined-it just became less socially acceptable. Now it’s not only acceptable, but lauded by some to the point that it’s even “hip” among certain groups to hate Jews.

‪Israeli Cornell Student (Whose Family Was A Victim Of Rocket Attacks) Told to ‘Quit Complaining’ by Pro-Palestinian Campus Group ‬

“The student, Shir Kidron, wrote in an April 7 op-ed for the Cornell Daily Sun that in 2009, her Gedera home was struck by a rocket, killing her dog Rosie.”

“The story of my home in Gedera is not unique,” Kidron wrote. “It resonates with tens of thousands of Israelis who have been under a constant threat of rockets from Gaza over the past 18 years. According to the Israeli Center for the Treatment of Psychotrauma, 40 percent of the children in the Israeli border town of Sderot suffer from PTSD. This is what happens when, at any moment, you could be given only 15 seconds to run for shelter.”
